I have seats for all three games – waiting for exact seats for Sunday.Tenth row 111 for Friday and Saturday…sunday will be somewhere in the outfield.

What time are you heading up Friday?
Could meet @ Nicks for a sandwich or whatever?
Let me know.

Saturday I have a freinds bday party to go in the afternoon, so my arrival time will be close to first pitch, and Sunday the wife will be along and she is already grumpy about the trip so meeting a cc’er wopuldn’t be a wise move…

A good buddy of mine lives around Philly and is trying to talk me into coming up for the Friday game, if I can swing the trip. Probably won’t be there with much time to spare though, so I’m not sure I can agree to meet anywhere anyway. I have driven past Philly a lot of times but never really stopped there, so I don’t know much about it either.

Still, at least you won’t be the only one in hostile territory. I’m going to be loud and proud, and hopefully I don’t encounter any of the hospitality for which Philly fans are supposed to be legendary. :P

god bless you die hard oriole fans. how you can watch 10 straight years of the worst baseball in modern day history is simply amazing. to travel to another state to see it? astounding. for your sake i hope they trade Huff for pitching, Wieters for a hitting catcher (he makes Zaun look like Yogi Berra), Mora for someone who’s awake.

we have the dullest, uninspired veterans ever. between mora and huff you might get a loud yawn. gotta go. the outfield is set, the pitching is typical oriole garbage coming up from bad farm coaching, the infield is not solidified and Huff will probably be with the Mets soon.

Wigginton is another Pete Incavilia (sp?). Cut the vets and go shopping again. last is last is last so you may as well have fun. at least fahey was interesting to watch as he made couch potatoes think they could make the O’s as a DH…at least.

have fun in Philly. don’t get hit in the head by a broom.

And maybe Saturday. Although, I doubt I’ll be able to meet up before, I’m going to have to race just to make the opening pitch.

 a true troll verbally attacks another fan. i am simply making an observation about the wereioles. do you think the wereioles have been decent the past 10 years? do you think mora and huff are exciting players and team leaders? do you think wigginton is a long term answer? do you think huff won’t be traded? do you think wieters is hitting well? okay a 300 foot HR tonight..congrats. do you think you won’t be swept by the phillies? do you think the wereioles pitching is not garbage? whats the problem? i think my agressive post is fair and accurate. they are in last place again and out of the race in early June again.

 the only good teams they have put on the field since 1984 have come via free agency. the success of the 90’s was based on Alomar, Palmero, Bonilla, Zeil, Wells, Brown, Key, Surhoff…all store bought and not home grown. then after a few exciting years Angelos realized he can still make big bucks by milking Camden Yards as a tourist attraction for visiting teams so why throw money at top players like the sox and yankees. we get to see them in the yard anyway with their 20,000 beer buying fans. why mess up the losing get rich formula.

this team has some signs of fragile life. adam jones might be the real deal. nick is. wieters is up in the air. roberts is very good. other than that the positions are open. reimhold is a project and very average left fielder but decent bat thus far. 1 dimensional Scott and utility hacker Wigginton can only contribute so much. there isn’t one good pitcher on the team. Guthrie is the new Ponson. the 15 other starters will be gone in 2 years. a bunch of Mark Williamsons, Norm Charltons and Mickey Westons. the “closer” had his 15 minutes. so much body movement for a ball that floats up there. reminds me of Armando. as far as the orioles go I watch maybe three guys hit and then turn the channel and check back to see if the same guys are hitting…2 on the opposing team.

gotta drive 3 hours to get the “bank”

okay i’ll chill out..first impressions are my weakness…im so used to being bitter its hard to overcome.

i never said “trade wieters”…anderson just might have been on roids, mussina/rip go without saying but they had the team to themselves for a while and didn’t exactly carry them.

armando was 100mph to the plate where the ball stopped and floated 9 inches to the sweet spot on 0-2. he was the best 0-1 piture in baseball to bad the hitters just watched counting 1 mississippi 2 mississppi and wham!! stupid thrower like cabrerra, pennington, flat bill cap guy, a zillion others. its like the the one thing that can’t be taught is all out pitchers use. because there is no pitcher development just a bunch of fat guys with oversized wrist watches that like to where spandex at 50 leaning on dugout railings across the minors..

sorry for the bad grammar but i dont proof read unless its a new post. so you english teachers can stop pointing shit out. drives me nuts..because i cant spell or type.

I see some of you will not be arriving till almost game time.So I hope this route I take helps.. If you’re coming from the south, traffic is BRUTAL getting off I-95 at the sports complex exit(#17,sign reads 611 broad and pattison)
Instead Get off the first exit after the airport#(13 sign reads west 291/to 76 west.) Stay to the right and go over the platt bridge. Stay in the right lane. At the second light make a right onto pattison. I ALWAYS park inthe first lot on the left, Its called the Naval Hospital lot.(its next to the eagles facility) It is soooooooooooo much easier in and out both ways. Parking for that and all Lots is $12..
When leaving just make a right out of the lot, make a left at the 2nd light, go straight back over the bridge, stay in the right lane and it turns into 95 south, I hope this helps! I figured this out one day I was running late for a game and its always worked for me. Hardly anybody takes this way.
Welcome to Philly my fellow O’s fans by the way.You should have no problems. I love CBP and have been many, many times, if you need any other tips, please feel free to ask. One final tip, unless you get there EARLY avoid Ashburn Alley. It is absolutely insane how many people go there, you can barely move. All that is there is a store, some food and whiteys statue..The wait for cheesesteaks is always 30 minutes plus during the game at tony lukes..If you want to stand and watch the game..you can at the beverage rails at the top of almost every section.. Enjoy the game everyone!
